Frequently asked questions:

Q:       What is the difference between the regular price and the Elite package?

A:       The elite package also includes overnight accomodations in the Liar's Den guest room. 

           Continental breakfast is provided. See the links for more info. The overnight stay can

           can either be the night before the trip or the night after.     

Q:        Do you clean the fish?

A:        We clean the fish for you on Pa. walleye trips and Lake Ontario salmon trips. We

            are prohibited by law from cleaning fish in Ohio. All fish get cleaned on Elite trips. 

            We do not clean fish on perch trips. Fish cleaning  services are available on shore.

            Bass anglers rarely keep fish to eat, but if they choose to do so we will clean them.

Q:        Do we need to bring any tackle?

A:         Something Catchy provides all rods, reels, tackle, and bait but clients are free to bring their

            favorite gear if they prefer.

Q:        Do we need a fishing license?

A:        Yes, each angler must possess a valid fishing license for the waters we will be fishing.

            Pennsylvania anglers must also purchase a Lake Erie stamp in addition to their general license.

            Pennsylvania anglers wishing to keep steelhead must also purchase a trout stamp. The Lake

            Erie and trout stamps may be purchased as a combination. There are no additional stamps

            required in Ohio waters. A one day non-resident Ohio license is $11.

Q:        How many fish are we allowed?

A:        In Pennsylvania anglers are allowed 6 walleyes, 30 perch, and 3 steelhead. In Ohio, each

            angler is allowed the same. In New York, each angler is allowed a combination of 3 fish

            but no more than 2 can be trout.

Q:        Does the boat have a bathroom?

A:         Yes, Something Catchy is equipped with an enclosed marine head.

Q:        Do you cancel when it rains?

A:        No, we will fish in the rain provided there are no thunderstorms forecasted or in the vicinity.

            Bring your rain gear.

Q:        How rough of water will you fish in?

A:        That depends on the clients. We will not suggest cancellation unless waves exceed 4 feet. We

            have had clients willing to fish in 3-5 foot waves and have done very well. Waves exceeding 5

            feet are uncomfortable to fish in and could pose safety hazards.

Q:        What if someone gets sick?

A:        We suggest using motion sickness medication to anyone unsure if they are prone to

            sea sickness. There are several over-the-counter varieties including Dramamine, Bonine,

            or their generic equivalents, or ask your doctor about prescription strength remedies. These

            should be taken up to two hours prior to getting on the boat (follow instructions). If at any time

            a client becomes sick, the entire charter must agree to return to the dock as this terminates the

            trip. The Captain may, at his discretion, take the remaining clients back out fishing (additional

            charges may apply). Hint: Avoid Mac Donald’s (and greasy foods) for breakfast!

Q:        What if we have never fished before?

A:         Something Catchy provides free instruction. Have no fear! You will be a seasoned veteran

             in no time.

Q:         Can we drink beer on the boat?

A:         Yes, but please no glass containers or hard liquor.

Q:          Should we bring coolers on the boat?

A:           You will not need a cooler for fish until we get back. Please bring your food and beverages in

               no more than one 40 quart cooler.
